The Albansese Agostino trafficking cell has historical ties to the old Cotroni and Violi guys and could possibly explain why the descendants of these men were paying money to Dom Violi or what I think is more likely the case is it was a tax for trafficking in and through Dom Violi's area. We know Pat Musitano imposed a tax on all drug traffickers in the Niagara region.

Ciment where did you come across those names? Marcello Paolucci was a Joe De Vito guy way back when and was arrested with Sal Scoppa and many others for the kidnapping of Nino De Bartolomeis. Nino De Bartolomeis is another person I wish we had more info on and am surprised he's still around. Kidnapped in 2008 shot at in 2013 shot at in 2015 shot at in 2016 he's been dodging bullets for the last 15 years. When he was shot in 2016 it was said he was close to Sergio Piccirilli.
